It is 15 minutes from the motorway and approximately 30 mins from Hamilton, Motherwell so whilst it feels wonderfully tranquil and undisturbed it is well situated to provide easy access to all the modern amenities.

This cottage has rooms for three young people. The decor within house has been carefully designed using modern, tasteful furniture the intent to provide a warm and comfortable environment.
